By enabling this option, your device may give a beautiful look but other than that it slows down the phone drastically.

Remove App Cache
Now, you need to clear all the cache which is stored under the apps you download. Whenever you open a particular app, some cache gets stored in the background, and it increases its size gradually if you do not clear in time.

So, we advise you to disable all the widgets from your Ascend P7 device. Once the widgets are removed, you can experience the better performance by yourself. If at all, you wish to use widgets, then limit them to 1 or 2 and not more than that.
Factory Reset
By following the above methods, you might see a good result on your device. If at all you are not satisfied with your device’s performance then try this method and it will help you for sure. But, before proceeding to this method, make sure to take a backup of the data as it will erase all the data present in the phone.
To perform a factory reset, you must turn off your phone and enter into the recovery mode. By holding volume up and power button simultaneously at the same time, you can enter into the recovery mode wherein you need to select the wipe data/factory reset using volume buttons and confirm the selection using the power button. Next, select and confirm ‘Yes erase all the data’ and proceed further. Once the process is done, select and confirm ‘Reboot System Now’, and your device will become a brand new one.
